E-Plug Enhances Motor Analysis Safety
E-Plug hardware permits the acquisition of motor electrical
signature analysis data at a motor control center (MCC),
The user simply attaches a connector to the E-Plug while
cable from the innovative E-Plug module passes voltage
and current data from probes inside the MCC to the
connector.
The E-Plug’s efficient design comprises an enclosure with
external attachment leads. Both current and voltage signals pass through these leads. Inside the enclosure, electronic circuitry processes the signals to prepare them for output to the connector. In short, E-Plug contains everything you need for efficient signal transmission.
Benefits
Faster
Reduces overall testing time
Easier
Simplifies connections, requiring only one cable to perform testing
Safer
Enhances safety by avoiding exposure to potential dangers associated with opening MCC cabinet while equipment is energized
